The $750,000 Grade I Stephen Foster is this Saturday at Churchill. Here is how the field is shaping up. It looks like it's going to be an 8 or 9 horse field:
1. Buzzard's Bay
2. Brass Hat
3. Perfect Drift
4. Master Command
5. Wanderin Boy
6. Love of Money
7. Wild Desert
8. Wiggins

Brass Hat to win it for the local boys. PD to round out the exacta for sentimal overkill.



Also I thought Buzzy was not likely to go in? When is the decision made?

Too bad Funny Cide isnt running. We could pick 3rd for Perfect Drift and 2nd for Funny Cide, and then wheel the rest

Wiggins! Ha! I didn't know that they were running the Stephen Foster at Hawthorne this year!

I'll stick with my theory on show bets for this one, which is as follows:

"Never bet to show unless the horse you are betting on is named Perfect Drift."

BB is definitely running. They were going to run in the Californian but they changed their minds. He's leaving for Kentucky on the red-eye tonight.

Looks like they made it today. Must not going to be too humid this weekend. They were worried about the louisville summer heat, I guess?

I believe Buzzards Bay wins this, I can't decide if I am going to go, been every year since Victory Gallup broke the track record that day, had to see my favorite Silver Charm run one last time....

I have to go with Buzzard's Bay, although I'll admit it's nothing more than a gut feeling (and probably a bad gut at that). Brass Hat and PD in a close finish for second, but PD will get third again. (Sorry, girls!)

Default Think we have to root Buzzy here..

Mike brings up a great point.. Rupert Pupkin has a rather close tie to Buzzard's Bay, and Derby Trailers should throw their support his way for the Foster!!

Also get the feeling that there's some real anticipation for this card from the masses! And that's terrific..

If thats the case, RUPERT, I put $150 down to win on Buzzards that day last year in the SA Derby. Big pay day there, so thanks
